Captured in August, the images show the Olympic Parks taking shape as preparations enter the final straight with just under one year until the Opening Ceremony. The Brazilian federal government website for the Games also provided information on construction progress, based on information provided by the Rio city government, which is responsible for the construction.

Construction of the main concrete bowl has been completed and work on the metallic roof is in the final stages. The second layer of asphalt on the main court has been laid, leaving only the painting of the court.

The main structure is completed. Owing to the venue’s temporary nature, the seats will be rented and installed closer to the test event next year. The venue has already staged a goalball match, and after the Games the arena will be dismantled and its parts used to construct four public schools.
